Cost Scenarios
📊
Baseline
(baseline)
$2.7M/yr
Normal operational year with no major incidents; recurring containment, research, monitoring and cover costs only.
routine operations
scheduled maintenance
no breaches or public exposures
🚨
Minor Incident
$3.0M/yr
Localized incident such as probe loss requiring accelerated replacements, limited staff exposures requiring treatment, and short-term PR/legal costs.
probe failure/loss
small-scale exposure among staff
temporary PR/legal engagement
🚨
Major Breach
$4.5M/yr
Significant containment breach or public exposure requiring large-scale emergency response, remediation, and long-term medical/legal actions.
uncontrolled gas dispersal
public exposure / mass casualties
major contamination requiring remediation
🚨
Research Breakthrough Requiring Scale Up
$3.7M/yr
Discovery prompts immediate scale-up of research and containment capabilities (new probes, expanded lab capacity, hiring).
significant scientific breakthrough
need for expanded probe fleet and lab capacity

Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and ranges but many items (probe lifespan, research scope, frequency of losses/breaches) are uncertain, producing medium confidence in numeric choices and scenario probabilities.
